Heritage Extra Virgin Olive Oil
$48
Grown and made by Philip Aquith, a fourth generation Olive farmer in Ojai, California, where thousands of gnarled, centuries-old trees grow. Here, the Olives are picked by hand and pressed immediately to ensure critical freshness and rich polyphenol content.
- The fresh blend includes tree varieties that are virtually impossible to find in the US, such as Columella, Nocellara del Belice, Cailletier, and Lechin de Sevilla.
- Results: a vivid green Oil with vibrant, peppery notes balanced by softer fruit, and a high smoke point that's perfect for dipping, finishing, roasting, and baking.
- Healing for the Garden: These olives are grown on a multi-generational family-run farm, and are hand-selected at peak ripeness then pressed immediately to ensure critical freshness.
- This farm operates with organic, sustainable and biodynamic principles, honoring the link between people, the land, and the community.
- The paste from pressing olives is turned into natural compost tea to fertilize the trees and benefit pollinators.
- The Farm also irrigates their groves with water from their pond, which is rich in soil-beneficial micro-organisms.
